For me, DDR was the first Bemani game I ever played and of course it introduced me to Konami's long line of wonderful music games.

This is how it went for me:

DDR 3rd Mix - 7th Mix > Beatmania > Para Para Paradise > DDR EXTREME JP to US EX2> Beatmania IIDX 11:RED

I played DDR, and it got me to play the original Beatmania for PSX, however it didn't turn out so well, because the game was very difficult for me. Then I tried PPP, tried to get into it, but eventually went back to DDR. Now, it's like 40% DDR and 60% Beatmania IIDX, for it has rekindled my love for Bemani games.

Shoot, I played Pop'N at Arcade Infinity, and I thought it was gonna be uber difficult like Beatmania IIDX, but surprisingly the songs were fun and it felt like getting an A on a Beatmania song for the very first time.

I'm pretty sure that's how it went

Edit- I forgot Dance Maniax, I think that would fit between BM and GF

Beatmania 3rd Mix at Game Works - failed miserably!

DDR on XBOX (Ultramix)

Got beatmania US - sttruggled but had fun

Bought beatmania 5key, beatmania IIDX, the pop'n

Continued to GF/DM, other DDRs, taiko

Now own a beatmania 5key cabinet with 3rd - 7th mix + complete 1 and 2

The circle is complete!

DDR for a few years, then I started taking up 5-key beatmania (starting on a BMIII machine). A few months later, I got beatmania PSX/3rd Mix (bundle). After feeling confident that I was decent at 5-key, I took up the challenge of IIDX. Since I started with the first CS game in the series with beatmania PSX, I figured I might as well do the same with IIDX, so I got 3rd Style.

A few years later, and here I am today.

DDR got me interested in Beatmania, though I've only played BM Complete Mix 2 and BM III Apend 6th Mix and nothing from IIDX.

DDR -> Stepmania -> IIDX -> Pop'n -> Pump

Lol, how could I forget Pump before?!

And I'm pretty sure that almost everyone here started out on DDR or maybe some old version of Beatmania 5-key. My Cousin saw a BM machine awhile before seeing a pump machine, before seeing DDR.

And now that I think about it, I'm surprised nobody has posted saying that they started with Geetar Heerow. (Maybe because we're in the Beatmania board, and why would they want to play a crappy GH ripoff? )
